East Allen Opposes State Police fee Page 9 Submitted by CONNIE VANBLARGAN The weekend of February 7-9, 12 youth and adults from Christian Endeavor Youth Group, Little Moore Church in Danielsville, along with other local youth groups and some from New York attended the Allentown Youth Quake at the SureStay Hotel (former Best Western) on Route 512.

The Youth Quake helps youth from grade 6-12 strengthen their faith through music, speakers, and workshops. The theme was "More" and it was based on Ephesians 3:20-21.

The speaker was the founder and president of Life Promotions, Bob Lenz. Bob is the author of the book “Dignity Revolution” about anti-bullying and he has spoken to over 5 million people around the world. His presentations are youth-centered around the value of every person. Life Promotions is a non-profit organization with a mission to give hope to youth so they can overcome the challenges of life. The music group, Red Let-

ter Hymnal, lead the attendees with live popular Christian music. The youth participated in workshops including Food Packaging Service Project where the kids pack emergency meals that are used locally and abroad to aid in disaster relief and help combat world hunger. Bible Study Escape room was a workshop where they did puzzles and riddles to help solve Bible study questions in a timed game. God, Games, and Geekery was a workshop about leveling up our relationship with God while still being a gamer.

Other workshops and a self-guided prayer room are also offered.

Christian Endeavor Youth group sells breakfast sandwiches after Sunday worship once per month to raise money to support our attendance at the Quake each year.

Next year's Allentown Quake will be held Feb. 5-7, 2021. The theme will be BELONG from Romans 8:38-39. This is a nondenominational event and more information can be found at QuakeEvent.com

Natural perspectives For the health-minded individual

Common Sense vs. Common Practice If you have been following Natural Perspectives® for any length of time you know I enjoy commenting on the “lost art of common sense.” Every time I say it, I laugh and think of my father. You must agree that such a statement holds validity in a wide range of conversations, albeit if only for the sake of truth mixed with humor.

I earnestly cannot say that common sense is in fact common, yet I am well aware that foolhardy common practices abound. Such is nature of humankind, self included. Quite frankl,y in my own life, in my humanness if you will, I, like many, actually appear to be going out of my way to do the wrong thing. Sometimes on a small scale; sometimes larger. All have consequences.

Examples of self, overriding common sense and falling prey to common practice abound everywhere we look. One scenario is that common sense tells us that if you smoke you will (with a high probability and certainty in the future) suffer from an ailment, of which there are many. However, common practice is millions of people around the world smoking packs of cigarettes day in and day out for decades. If we are well aware of such, then why do we seemingly go out of our way to create a problem to our future selves? It’s bizarre. It’s a part of being human which the understanding of typically takes a lifetime to partially even understand.

I have absolutely no intention of upsetting anyone with the above example. I myself know that common sense reveals smoking kills yet I do occasionally have a cigar. Such foolishness. The same can be said of

For today, just become aware of the areas of your daily life where less than desirable common practices are somehow overriding your common sense. Simply ask yourself why? Then ask yourself this important question: what would the highest, best ver-

virtually anything. So why in the world would our inner self make an intentional decision to fly in the face of what should be? I will leave that for greater minds to ponder.

It isn’t just smoking. What about the common practice of drinking soda or eating chips, cookies, and fake food as the bulk of a daily diet when common sense tells us it will slowly develop into diabetes, multiple medications, and inevitable poor quality of life? Again, I ask, why do we behave like this? If you would like to pretend that you have never done this in some fashion, then go right ahead. I’ll take you at your word…for the rest of us we need to laugh through our tears about what we have done to ourselves.

Just this week, I came through the door in the evening to the smell of something really good cooking. I was told in no uncertain terms to “hold my horses” as it would be another thirty minutes or so before it was ready. I couldn’t wait that long, so despite common sense, I ate some trail mix, fruit and a few chips that were begging to be eaten. We all know what happened next.

I could barely enjoy my dinner because I filled up on other stuff.

I seemingly went out of my way to ruin dinner. Nobody did this

Now I hope you are finding a little humor in what I am saying, yet generally this is no laughing matter. I am not here this week to offer up actionable steps or solutions to help common sense prevail over our common prac-

All of a sudden he says, “Wait a minute, what are you putting in my coffee?” The barista answered, “I’m not sure what you mean.” “That pitcher, what’s in it? Oh, I know, it’s last night’s coffee.” “No, I made this fresh this morning.” The tall man isn’t convinced. “Don’t you talk back to me, that’s last night’s coffee!” The coffee guy tries to explain that they brew the coffee fresh every day and put it in a pitcher to carry it to the coffee carafes so they can serve the customer more quickly. The customer isn’t convinced, “Like I said before, stop lipping off to me and admit it’s yesterday’s coffee.” The coffee guy stopped talking and the tall man stormed off after telling him three times to stop lipping off. After he left the next gentleman in line told coffee guy that he handled that the best he could and that the angry customer obviously had underlying issues. I actually saw coffee guy make the coffee but everything happened so quickly I couldn’t get a word in.

Then for lunch I went into a smoothie shop. There were two girls behind the counter, one making a smoothie and the other teaching her how to do it.

All seemed good. Then a man walked in but he got no greeting, they didn’t even look at him. He stood there for about five minutes and then it happened, he walked out. All of a sudden they decided to look up and were stunned that he left. They know me so I offered, “You should have said hello to him, he felt ignored.”

The girls lost the customer and it was their fault. I’m sure he will never stop by again. The owner wasn’t there but would have never allowed that behavior from staff.

October 16, 1983 My dearest Josie, I know how much you love this time of year. The crisp air, colored leaves, pumpkins ripening to their rich orange, and apple picking. Together, I believe over the years, we have picked enough apples to make apple pies to feed the entire town twice over. You looked so graceful as you went from tree to tree looking for just the right ones. Then when you found them, you instructed me to gently tug them of their stems. I remember you scolding me when I pretended to yank them off. I loved how your eyes crinkled up as you squinted your teasing eyes ready to really give it to me!

Do you remember the day that two red Cardinals kept flying around the trees? You told me how much you loved them.

I told you that they were messengers from above. You insisted we go right out and buy a bird feeder to attract them. We were like two kids looking for the perfect feeder. Josie, I cannot imagine my life without you.

You, my dear, are a precious angel sent to me from above. I will always cherish each day we spend together. I love you, my apple girl.

It was a damp, dreary, early winter’s afternoon as Josie looked out her kitchen window at the bare trees and threatening gray sky. She stood there for a bit, searching the dirt driveway that wound its way up to the white house with the black shutters and red door. Her hazel green eyes, squinting, darting back and forth, between the naked trees as they had done every day, throughout the seasons for over 50 years.

Josie, deep in thought, flinched as the grandfather clock standing guard in the hallway bonged five times. She turned, looked at the clock her husband had built, and gave to her as a wedding gift.

Josie wiped a tear from her eyes and walked slowly into the living room. She headed to the table by her favorite chair, picked up the worn shoe box that once held the shoes she had worn on her wedding day. She gently lifted the lid and stared down at the stack of letters tied with an ivory bow. Although the crackling of the warm flames dancing in the fireplace warmed the room, Josie’s heart felt cold. She closed her eyes and whispered, “Eric.”

Josie was short in stature with thinning white curly hair that framed her soft round face. Her cheeks were naturally rosy setting off the pink pearl earrings that Eric had given her on their last anniversary. An anniversary they had just celebrated two months ago. A gold chain necklace with

one medium pink pearl hung from her neck resting on top of her pink apron; the one she wore every night as she made their dinner. She had not taken her earring and necklace off since Eric’s funeral. Josie had vowed that she would never take them off again.

Josie gently took the letter from the bottom of the pile, opened the envelope and took a deep breath.

Gab Over by Pete The Fence G. Ossip Hi gang…Presidents’ Day was on Monday, all the kids had a beautiful day off from school, I saw some skating outside and at the parks on my way back into work at lunchtime. Sure made me wistful for those days- would you go back and revisit those days if you could? A simpler time it was, although at the time it didn’t feel like it, you know what I mean? Back when I was in school not much exciting stuff happened, nothing near as exciting as “A Night on the Roof ”! I mentioned that last week, Nazareth High School is doing thisfor every $500 donated to “Team One Day”, an administrator will spend the night on the roof, from 8 p.m. until 8 a.m., was Wednesday, Feb. 19 into Thursday, Feb. 20. While I’m writing this, they’re at almost $4,000. Deadline for donations is a day after I’m writing this so it looks like all 10 or almost all 10 administrators are campin’ out on the roof!

Stay tuned next issue for more details…While on the subject of Nazareth High School, a picture of a gun was sent to a student’s phone, via “airdrop” a few weeks ago. Sorry folks but I am not knowledgeable enough on technology to attempt to explain airdrop… Anyway, the student immediately alerted his teacher and the school police were then involved. The student was taken off grounds as the image could have been a threat to him individually.

The school police are investigating the incident and trying to determine if it was a real weapon, location it was taken, and who sent the photo. I’m sure there will be more updates on this soon…

How ‘bout that wrestling team?

And the football team for that matter, Nazareth sure has some outstanding players and coaches…I always get excited about good news, especially if it involves pets…last week it was the abandoned dog that was adopted by a Moore Township Detective, Mr. Jason Gianatiempo, and then shortly after I found out a poodle that resides in the Northampton Borough won the Best in Show prize at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, how exciting! …On my way into Bath the other day I saw that Club Road is closed again, I guess the bridge is closed so you can’t get to Creek Road from Club Road, Petersville Rod & Gun Club is still open though! Not sure how long that’s going on for…. There was a wire

fire last week in Lehigh Township, the area of Mountain View Drive and N. Dogwood Road…

Not sure if you follow the annual contest “What’s So Cool About Manufacturing?” but the Lehigh Valley contest awards show will be broadcasted live on Tuesday, Feb. 25 at 7 p.m. School districts in Lehigh, Northampton, Carbon counties and the Diocese of Allentown are featured in this contest. Maybe one of our local schools will win! Guess we’ll see…Northampton had their crime watch meeting last week at the fire department, they hold one every second Wednesday of the month. The Bath Neighborhood Watch Group meeting was on Wednesday with a focus on training the public and first responders on how to control bleeding if there’s an accident or injury.

Nazareth’s was also on Wednesday with a focus on “Why Police Do What They Do.” On the same night was the hearing continuation between Rock Lehigh Valley and East Allen Township, held at the Allen Township Fire Company…Lotsa tricky trays and bingos going on and coming up, there’s always so much to do! …

Did anyone watch the Daytona 500? That crash sure was horrific, I think my heart stopped whilst watching it... prayers for Ryan Newman. The last update I saw before this issue went to print was that he is in serious condition but that doctors indicated his injuries are not life threatening…That’s all she wrote for this week gang, keep an eye out next week as Mr. Pany’s Weaversville series will begin! Have a great week.

‘Moo’la for our Main Streets’ Annual grant Luncheon

Remember our Heroes Little Moore Church rocks for a cause

By KERI LINDENMUTH The annual “Rock-a-Thon” was held at Little Moore Church on Saturday, February 15. Members of the Christian Endeavor Youth Group raised nearly $2,000 by rocking in rocking chairs from 9:30 a.m until midnight. The money pledged by family and friends will help support the youth group’s summer mission trip.

The Rock-a-Thon has been a

favorite event for members of the church for well over thirty years. Some of the participants first joined Rock-a-Thon when they were babies in parents’ or older siblings’ laps. Now, they’re old enough to set their own Rock-a-Thon pledge goals.

Participants entertained themselves with movies, video games, board games, and plenty of food prepared by church volunteers. Sometimes there

were jokes and games of catch.

Other times there was brief silence as participants checked their phones throughout the day.

“It is funny to see how it changes every year,” said Colleen Himmelwright. She has been involved with the Rocka-Thon since the beginning and has watched as a new generation of rockers keep themselves entertained.

One thing that hasn’t changed, she jokes, are the meals. Favorites like pizza, chicken fingers, ice cream, and macaroni and cheese have become traditions that rockers look forward to.

Participants were allowed to break for meals together, and were given five-minute breaks every hour to move their chairs or use the restroom. Volunteers were sure to yell, “Keep rocking!” if any participant was caught taking a break (or a nap!). Rockers swapped roles throughout the day as some had to attend work or sports practice, but there was always at least ten individuals rocking at all times.

Connie VanBlargan is this year’s organizer of the event.

She helps look for opportunities for volunteering and giving back. This year’s donations may go toward restocking the church’s food bank or a mission to help repaint community schools in Bethlehem.

In past years, mission trips have been taken to Philadelphia to help the homeless or to New Jersey to help victims of Hurricane Sandy. Other years, donations have been given to leukemia charities, heart disease organizations, and even members of the church congregation in need. What is ultimately chosen is up to the youth organization.

“It is all about the kids,” adds Himmelwright. “It is

about having fun [and] fellowship. We cannot just be in a me world. We have to help others.” eHero e

East Allen Township Opposes State Police Fee proposal

By KERI LINDENMUTH During their meeting on Tuesday, February 12, the East Allen Township Board of Supervisors asked solicitor Joe Piperato to draft a letter of opposition to Governor Tom Wolf ’s state police fee proposal.

If the proposal is passed, East Allen Township would pay over

$100,000 per year for the Pennsylvania State Police. This would mean a tax increase for citizens.

“You are going to pay for what you are already paying for... more,” said Supervisor Mark Schwartz.

Supervisors argued that citizens are already paying for these police services in a hidden state

tax. Meanwhile, Governor Wolf ’s office said that as more municipalities are turning to state police services, costs of the program are going up.

Schwartz, who works for the state police, said that as a citizen he is against this proposal.

“There is not any more service that is going to be provided,” he said.

Supervisor Roger Unangst added that he was frustrated by the way municipalities were warned of this proposal.

“Why did we have to find out about this from the newspaper and not the government?” he asked.

Several other local municipalities have spoken out against the proposal.

During their meeting, supervisors also gave a progress update on the demolition of the former Weaversville juvenile facility.

Borough manager Brent Green estimates that the building will be demolished in roughly three weeks.

All of the building’s wood, metal, and masonry materials are being separated during demolition. This will prevent them from ending up in a landfill.

The procedure is very “conscientious” according to borough engineer James Milot.

Supervisors also approved the demolition of the farmhouse, which will follow the demolition of the main building. Supervisors motioned that costs will not exceed $35,000. This includes asbestos removal.

Finally, the township will be applying for a PMHIC Employee Wellness Grant. This grant, which is roughly $1,000, can go toward vaccinations for township employees, active shooter training, or CPR training.

“In today’s world, I would not have a problem with [any of those programs],” said Unangst.

The next supervisors meeting will be held on Thursday, February 27.

NAZARETH AREA Nazareth Acting Company Shows how ‘Love is Like a Game Show’

By KERI LINDENMUTH From awkward question and answer sessions to family feuds with the in-laws, finding love really is like an episode of your favorite game show. Movement Theater and the Nazareth Acting Company showed just how true that statement is in their adult Valentine’s Day comedy production of “Love is Like a Game Show,” directed by Catherine Little and Rick Kerner.

Movement Theater in Nazareth was turned into WNAC TV Studios and theatergoers became a live studio audience sitting in on tapings of “The Love Game”

and “Family Freud” (think “Family Feud” if it was hosted by Dr. Phil). Throughout the evening, the cast hilariously showcased the highs and lows of any relationship.

“The Love Game,” an original play written by Mandy Mershon, was a new take on the ‘70s classic “The Dating Game.” With five mystery bachelorettes to choose from, bachelor Henry hoped to find love.

However, it quickly became evident that Henry may have some trouble finding his happily ever after. From a bitter ex-girlfriend to one contestant who had

more than men on her mind, the contestant pool grew smaller and smaller. Each bachelorette fled from the stage with an applauseworthy speech on why they did not need Henry to be happy, leaving Henry alone with a single rose and no one to give it to.

The second act was a production of “Family Freud,” written by Barbara Litt. Julie and her father Ryan faced off against Jeffrey and his mother Suzanne. Julie and Jeffrey had been married for over a decade, but were on the verge of divorce. It was up to show host Dr. Phyllis to bring them back together. However, it was the bickering in-laws who ended up reuniting the children...much to their dismay. With electroshock buzzers, inflatable hammers, and plenty of beeped-out curses, this was not your average episode of “Family Feud.”

Litt, from New York, was in the audience to see her play performed. It was the first time the play had been produced on stage.

She enjoyed seeing her words come to life.

A former teacher, she got into playwriting and acting following her retirement. She is now a member of Actors Equity and SAG-AFTRA. “Theater has a way of reaching out and transforming people’s lives,” she said. “It is magic.”

Theatergoers definitely got a taste of magic throughout the evening, whether it was the magic of love at first sight, the magic of coming together, or the magic of realizing that a significant other is not the only way to be happy.

The Nazareth Acting Company and Movement Theater perform several productions a year of both well-known and new, original plays. For tickets and information, visit movementtheater.net.

Five To-Do's To Take Your Basement From Unlivable To Lovable www.mynewstouse.com (NAPSI)—Look up “basement” in the dictionary and you’ll see cellar, vault—even crypt. But with a little effort and some design flair you can make your basement come alive—and reclaim valuable living space.

Create the workout room you always wanted. A dramatic home theater. Or a spacious office, playroom or craft area. If you can re-imagine your basement, you can remodel it. Here are hints on how: 1. Make a plan: An accurate floor plan will help you visualize the end result—especially if

you’re dividing rooms, adding a pool table, a large sectional or a projector and theater seating.

Dozens of design apps can help you create a virtual, 3D floor plan. A few to consider: Home Designer Suite, Sweet Home 3D, Home Design 3D and Google Sketchup.

Check to see if you’ll need a permit for improvements.

2. Banish water: Does your basement pass the smell test? If your lower level has moisture problems, your nose will know.

Besides a musty smell, moisture leaves other clues: dark, saturated concrete block walls, flaking paint or condensation. Consult a basement waterproofing contractor if you have any concerns before you begin remodeling.

3. Elevate your ceiling style: Stained or sagging ceilings also point to excess moisture. Identify the cause and make repairs. Then replace the old ceiling with coffered ceiling tiles. With the look of sunken panels, they add depth and distinction. Some of Armstrong Ceilings’ coffered options resist moisture and mold and stand up to humidity.

Like the look of wood? Check out Armstrong WoodHaven Ceiling Planks. They’re available in a variety of finishes, although WoodHaven Classic White planks is the DIY favorite. These wood-look ceiling planks can install over drywall, plaster or joists and can even cover an existing drop ceiling grid.

Colonial Dinner Theater

“John Adams and His Thoughts on Government” Presented by the Bachmann Players The GWHS is pleased to announce our first Dinner Theater, performed by members of the Bachmann Players.

Meet John Adams, Massachusetts Representative to the Continental Congress, and signer of the Declaration of Independence. Mr. Adams will discuss how the Declaration of Independence came about, his own thoughts on government and the preservation of liberty, and why he thinks Thomas Paine’s pamphlet, “Common Sense,” is too democratical.

John Adams The Bachmann Players, under the direction of Christopher Black, is a group of locally based amateur historians and actors. Mining the area’s rich colonial history, they use letters, diaries, and other sources to re-create the people and events of the 1700s so they can be experienced by a modern audience.

Dates and Times: Wed., March 18 at 7 p.m.- 4 course dinner & beverage included (snow date Wed., March 25) Sat., March 21 at 7 p.m.- 4 course dinner & beverage included (snow date Sat., March 28) Sun., March 22 at 2 p.m.- light refreshments included (snow date Sun., March 29) The beautiful candle-lit Ralston-McKeen House will be the setting for this event.

you cover them.

5. Make a statement: Once you’ve landed on the look you love—whether it’s traditional, farmhouse or midcentury modern—personalize your décor to make it your own.

Display cubes or built-in shelving with lighting are great options for showing off your trophies, baskets, pottery or collectibles. For color and warmth, mix and match a variety of pillows and plush throws.

To personalize your walls— without making a permanent design commitment—consider wall decals. Their elegant patterns and bold images add instant interest. You can even make your mark with an inspiring, oversized quote.

Use every type of lighting— general, task and accent—to bring your basement out of the shadows. Mirrors are another great way to add light—and the illusion of space.

DIYers have never had more versatile design tools and materials to choose from. So don’t let your lower level go unloved and unused any longer. Let the transformation begin.

today. Before you choose, think about how you’ll use the space.

Consider structural issues, too.

Creating a playroom or cozy retreat? If moisture isn’t a worry, add warmth and softness underfoot with carpeting or an area rug.

If your sub-floor is smooth and even, vinyl is hard to beat.

Whether in tile, sheet or plank form, the styles are versatile and the material is water-resistant or waterproof.

If you’re adding a basement gym, consider rubber interlocking tiles. They absorb shock and you can install them yourself.

You’ll discover abundant wallcovering options, too—such as wainscoting, paneling and beadboard. Subtle grass cloth wallpapers add sophistication. Peel-andstick cork wall tiles create design interest and absorb sound.

Whatever your choice, be sure to waterproof the walls before
